Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break it down.

The forecast for the next 16 days kicks off on Saturday, August 22, and it's a mixed bag. We've got a solid run of clean, punchy surf coming through, but it's not all smooth sailing. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing crazy there.

Saturday morning starts off pretty average. The swell is 6ft from the SSW with a short period of 8 seconds. The wind is a cross-on, so it's gonna be choppy. Not the best way to kick things off. The afternoon gets a bit bigger, with 7ft from the SSW and a period of 10 seconds, but the conditions are questionable.

Now, Sunday the 23rd is where things start to look up. The wind swings offshore and that swell settles to 6ft from the SSW. The period is a solid 10 seconds, and the energy is picking up (655). It's clean, and it's a good sign of things to come.

Monday the 24th is the first real standout. The swell jumps to 8ft from the S with a period of 13 seconds. That's a proper groundswell folks, and combined with the 1758 energy, it's got some grunt. The wind is a clean offshore. This is for experienced surfers, as that size is getting up there. The afternoon though, it's predicted to be too big for this break, with a 10ft swell. Best to get your fill in the morning.

Wednesday the 26th is the absolute peak of the window. The morning is the best on offer. You're looking at a 8ft swell from the S with a very long period of 16 seconds. The energy is insane at 5173. The wind is offshore and light. This is a true expert session, with long, powerful lines. The long period will make it grind nicely.

Thursday the 27th is another good one. The swell drops a touch to 7ft, but it's still a solid S groundswell with a 14-second period. The morning is offshore again, and it's clean. The afternoon wind is light, keeping it tidy.

The rest of the forecast has some fun little windows but nothing that really tops that Wednesday. Saturday the 29th has a small, glassy run with 6ft from the ENE, which is a nice change of pace. Then we hit a bit of a dry spell from the 30th through to the 2nd of September with onshore winds and messy conditions. There's a brief glimmer on the morning of the 3rd with glassy conditions and a 3ft, 9-second SSW swell, but it's slight. The run continues with cross-on winds until the 6th, when we get a clean, offshore morning with a 3ft S groundswell at 12 seconds. It's a small clean finish to the outlook.

The standout is easily Wednesday the 26th of August. That's the day for the experienced crew. If you're an intermediate, focus on the Monday morning or the Thursday morning.

Rusty.
